South-West. We are a family looking for a 3+ bed home in Dorset, east
Devon or south Somerset preferably within 45 mins from the south coast. It
definitely needs to be a period property with a couple of acres of land or
more. It doesn’t need to be a complete wreck and in fact unless it’s going
cheap we need it to be mortgageable. We are chain free and can move quickly.

South Herts / Inner Chilterns areas. Budget £200-£250k
(cash). We'd love to find a lovely old building in need of some serious TLC
which we could turn into our first home. Very flexible as to what - but ideally
it would be an older building with at least a bit of a garden. Any condition
considered but it's got to be lovely...! We're teachers so could spend a long
summer working on it - but obviously would get the builders in for the serious
stuff. Needs to be within reach of Edgware, so probably looking at
Hertfordshire/Buckinghamshire - currently in St. Albans but would look further
out. Please email Andrew and Dora at estragno@gmail.com
